Confused and clueless, I looked at my reflection in the mirror, wondering how I am going to hide the two red marks resting on my skin, one is on my collarbone, and the other one is near my adam's apple.
"I can't go to the campus showing these." I whispered when my gaze went to the man who was standing behind me.
I frowned when a smirk grew on his lips the moment our eyes met.
"I did not just mark you once, but twice last night."
He sounded so proud so I gave him a flat stare, which earned a chuckle from him. He then went closer to me and enveloped me in his arms, giving me a back hug.
"Do you want me to buy you a concealer?" he asked softly before giving me a kiss on my jaw.
Umiwas ako ng tingin sa kanya at tinignan ulit ang mga marka sa aking leeg. A grin slowly grew on my lips when I realized that I, in fact, could actually go to the campus showing these off.
"Nope." I tilted my head to have a better view of my neck.
My gaze then went to him when I noticed how he was checking me out through the mirror.
"You should wear your shirt now so we can leave." he said huskily but his gaze was never leaving me.
His thumbs are now caressing my waist, which is why I leaned on him. I tilted my head to the left to face him and pouted my lips, and I guess he understood what I wanted because he leaned closer and gave me three smack kisses on the lips.
I laughed when his glasses moved, but it didn't bother him so I raised my hands to fix them.
"You'll sleep here again tonight?" he asked slowly while caressing my hair.
I looked up at ceiling while leaning on him to think.
"Hmm.." should I? Am I going to sleep here again tonight? "I'll think about it." I said and smirked to tease him, but he only smiled and inhaled my scent by sniffing the soft part of my cheek.
My heart swelled with how careful he is with me, from the way he holds me, to the way he plants kisses on me, his movements are always so careful and smooth.
Or no..
I remembered how he kissed me last night. He was so aggressive that I was almost out of breath. But I was not complaining though. Last night experience with him was superb. It was the first time I did that with a man and it was beyond amazing.
"You can sleep wherever you are comfortable. But I think you'd be more comfortable and at peace beside me. What do you think?"
Tila may laman ang kanyang sinasabi kaya napatayo ako nang maayos.
Images of us, doing unholy things on his bed, flashed my mind. Heat spread through my body that I needed to step one step ahead to detach myself from him. I heard his chuckles, especially when I gave him a flat stare again.
"I'm serious, baby." he bit his lower lip and went closer to erase the gap between us. "I woke up to you earlier this morning sleeping peacefully. You looked so peaceful in my bed and I want you to be like that always—to be at peace without worrying about anything. You deserve a place that doesn't make you feel like leaving in the middle of the night."
Something intangible suddenly caressed my heart, that I needed to sigh because it felt overwhelming. I stared at him for a few moments, blinking my eyes slowly, because I couldn't believe that I found this man. In the middle of chaos in my family, I found this man.
"It doesn't even need to be my place. You can stay wherever you want, as long as it gives you peace." he smiled at me and brushed the strand of hair on my forehead.
